摘要:
A process for removing a plurality of layers of different materials from a substrate having a silicon material base, at least one of said layers being a silicon oxide material and at least one other of said layers comprising a metal and the metal layer being located above the silicon oxide layer. The process includes the steps of treating the substrate with a series of chemical formulations adapted to successively remove the materials of the plurality of layers until the silicon material base is exposed, the silicon oxide layer being removed by treatment with HF, wherein the HF treatment to remove said silicon oxide layer comprises exposing the substrate to:initially, a dilute HF solution of no more than 1.0% concentration;subsequently, a concentrated HF solution of from about 2.5% to about 10% concentration; andfinally, a dilute HF solution of no more than 1.0% concentration.
摘要:
A novel method is disclosed for the removal of organic material, particularly hardened photoresist, from the surface of a substrate. Layers of organic material are removed using at least two treatment cycles, each of which includes the steps of a) applying an acid-containing composition, optionally mixed with an oxidizer, to the substrate surface, and then b) applying water to the substrate surface. The process is characterized by higher temperature spikes, shorter process times and lower chemical usage than is obtained with conventional photoresist stripping methods which do not employ repetitious treatments. The method may be practiced with spray processing equipment.

A seamless solution transparently addresses the characteristics of nomadic systems, and enables existing network applications to run reliably in mobile environments. A Mobility Management Server coupled to the mobile network maintains the state of each of any number of Mobile End Systems and handles the complex session management required to maintain persistent connections to the network and to other peer processes. If a Mobile End System becomes unreachable, suspends, or changes network address (e.g., due to roaming from one network interconnect to another), the Mobility Management Server maintains the connection to the associated peer task—allowing the Mobile End System to maintain a continuous connection even though it may temporarily lose contact with its network medium. An interface-based listener uses network point of attachment information supplied by a network interface to determine roaming conditions and to efficiently reestablish connection upon roaming. The Mobility Management Server can distribute lists to Mobile End Systems specifying how to contact it over disjoint networks.

摘要:
Method and device for managing resource consumption in a computer network providing communication between plural devices, in which resources are provided to the plural devices. The method includes enforcing at least one of globally, per-device, per-device group, per-user group, and per-user policy management for managing consumption of the resources by the devices, distributing a task of managing of the resource consumption between the devices, and proxying in at least one proxy server communications between peers and the devices even when a device becomes temporarily disconnected from the network environment.
摘要:
Articles having hydrophobic fluorinated coatings are provided. More specifically, the articles include a substrate, a primer layer of acid-sintered silica nanoparticles, and a hydrophobic fluorinated layer. The hydrophobic fluorinated coatings can be used on a large variety of substrate and tend to be quite durable even when subjected to repeated rubbing and/or cleaning.
摘要:
A seamless solution transparently addresses the characteristics of nomadic systems, and enables existing network applications to run reliably in mobile environments. The solution extends the enterprise network, letting network managers provide mobile users with easy access to the same applications as stationary users without sacrificing reliability or centralized management. The solution combines advantages of existing wire-line network standards with emerging mobile standards to create a solution that works with existing network applications. A Mobility Management Server coupled to the mobile network maintains the state of each of any number of Mobile End Systems and handles the complex session management required to maintain persistent connections to the network and to other peer processes. If a Mobile End System becomes unreachable, suspends, or changes network address (e.g., due to roaming from one network interconnect to another), the Mobility Management Server maintains the connection to the associated peer task—allowing the Mobile End System to maintain a continuous connection even though it may temporarily lose contact with its network medium. In one example, Mobility Management Server communicates with Mobile End Systems using Remote Procedure Call and Internet Mobility Protocols.
摘要:
Systems for processing microelectronic substrates in a process chamber that incorporate improved technology for transitioning from a wet process to a dry process (especially transitioning from rinsing to drying). At least a portion of residual liquid remaining in fluid supply lines after a wet treatment is removed via a pathway that avoids purging directly onto the substrates. Related methods are also included in the present invention.
